In the years of famine, I led a comfortable life with my husband

Hearing the familiar voice, Su Zhizhi immediately relaxed her guard and quickly said, "Okay, I understand."

Just like that, Su Zhizhi simply packed up and walked out of the room. Xie Chengjin and Shen Wenjun, who heard the noise, followed Su Zhizhi out considering her safety.

Su Zhizhi saw the newcomer as soon as she came downstairs. She was quite surprised. "Ah? Lord Lin, why is it you? Shouldn't you be busy catching the flower thief? Did you find him?"

Xie Chengjin, who was standing by, also asked in confusion, "I wonder what brings you here, Master Lin?"

Facing the questions from Su Zhizhi and the others, Lin Kaituo said with a face full of shame, "This subordinate is here for this matter. We were looking for clues about the flower thief based on the clues provided by Miss Su, but we ran into a dead end. It's as if the thief never existed."

Before Lin Kaituo could finish his words, he was interrupted by Shen Wenjun, "So what? What does this have to do with us? You're not going to arrest us again, are you?"

Shen Wenjun mocked Lin Kaituo without hesitation.

After hearing this, Lin Kaituo immediately showed a guilty expression, he knew he was in the wrong.

"I'm sorry. Any offense caused by what happened before was my fault. I apologize to you here and hope you can forgive me. I'm sorry."

Lin Kaituo bowed and apologized to Shen Wenjun, Xie Chengjin and Su Zhizhi.

However, when Shen Wenjun thought about how he had been locked up for several days for no reason and had to eat rotten rice, he felt that he could not swallow this anger.

"What's the point of apologizing? Just talk? I can do that too." Shen Wenjun retorted without hesitation.

However, Su Zhizhi on the side waved her hand to signal Shen Wenjun to stop talking. Although she was indeed angry because Lin Kaituo had detained them, she also didn't want the flower thief to harm more girls.

Thinking of this, Su Zhizhi agreed without hesitation, "Okay, what do you want me to do? I will fully cooperate with you."

As soon as these words came out, Shen Wenjun wanted to stop him immediately, "Ah? Are you trying to save your life? What if you fail?"

After Shen Wenjun finished speaking, he looked at Su Zhizhi with a worried look on his face.

Su Zhizhi smiled slightly upon hearing this and said, "I know you're worried about my safety, but if I don't go, this flower thief will definitely harm more innocent women. The sooner he's caught, the better."

Su Zhizhi looked at Shen Wenjun and said seriously.

After hearing this, Shen Wenjun didn't know what to say for a moment and could only shut his mouth silently.

Xie Chengjin on the side looked at Su Zhizhi with great approval, "Then go ahead and do it. Don't worry, I will protect you in secret."

Su Zhizhi smiled and nodded, "Okay."

Seeing that Su Zhizhi agreed to this matter regardless of past grudges, Lin Kaituo immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Actually, the one who mainly cooperates with me this time is not Miss Su, but Mr. Xie." Lin Kaituo looked at Xie Chengjin seriously.

"Ah? What do you mean?" Xie Chengjin, who was called, looked at Lin Kaituo in confusion.

"First of all, Miss Su has already appeared last time. The flower thief will definitely be wary and will not easily come to Miss Su. Therefore, Miss Su is not a suitable candidate now."

"Secondly, Master Xie is very handsome. He would definitely look good after dressing up. Furthermore, Master Xie is a man. Even if he falls into the hands of a flower-stealing thief, he would have a chance to protect himself. So, all things considered, Xie Chengjin is the most suitable candidate for this bait."

Lin Kaituo looked at Xie Chengjin and said seriously.

Xie Chengjin gave a wry smile and asked, "You mean I should dress up as a woman and wear a woman's skirt?"

Lin Kaituo nodded truthfully and said, "Yes."

"Is there no other way?" Xie Chengjin struggled.

"No more." Lin Kaituo said very frankly.

After some thought, for the sake of the overall situation, Xie Chengjin finally chose to compromise and agreed, "Okay, then let's do as you say."

Seeing that Xie Chengjin agreed, Lin Kaituo was extremely happy.

The next morning, Xie Chengjin was woken up by Su Zhizhi early in the morning and then dressed up carefully.

After Su Zhizhi finished applying makeup to Xie Chengjin, her eyes widened. After carefully examining him for a while, she couldn't help but tease him, "You have such beautiful facial features. You look so pretty. You look even prettier than me in female attire. I'm so jealous."

Xie Chengjin's ears flushed when he heard that. "Stop! Stop it! Let's go wander around the streets right after we're done packing."

After saying that, Xie Chengjin turned around and left first.

But he didn't notice that he was wearing a skirt today, so he couldn't walk as fast as he did in men's clothes before. As a result, he almost fell after taking just two steps. Fortunately, Su Zhizhi, who was beside him, was quick to support him.

"Are you okay? Walk slowly and be dignified. You are a girl now, so take smaller steps." Su Zhizhi reminded him.

"Okay, I understand." Xie Chengjin said with a red face and gritted teeth.

In this way, the two of them came to the street to go shopping.

In the next few days, Su Zhizhi followed Xie Chengjin, who was dressed up carefully, and strolled around the streets every day. With Su Zhizhi's amazing makeup skills and Lin Kaituo's encouragement, Xie Chengjin's title of the new most beautiful woman in Lianhua County spread throughout the entire small county. Now, Xie Chengjin is known to everyone.

The whole town has spread the word about Xie Chengjin's beauty. Lin Kaituo and the others don't believe that the flower thief can sit still and not attack Xie Chengjin?

However, after waiting for a few days, the flower thief appeared again without any eagerness as before, as if he had disappeared.

Xie Chengjin couldn't sit still about this. After thinking about it, he remembered the clue that Su Zhizhi had provided to Lin Kaituo before - there were a lot of stray dogs.

Normally, ordinary people would not keep so many stray dogs. Firstly, they would make noise, and secondly, they would easily attack and hurt other innocent people. Excluding these factors, the fact that so many stray dogs appeared that day was very likely that someone was raising them specifically for this purpose.

There is only one place that can raise so many dogs without any complaints and still be useful, and that is a casino.

Because the casino has a special dog breeding base, and these dogs are very ferocious and brutal. These dogs are used to warn and teach gamblers who owe money and don't pay it back a lesson. One of the well-known punishments is to lock up the debtor with a wild dog that has been hungry for several days, and let the wild dog bite the person to death.

Xie Chengjin analyzed his ideas to Su Zhizhi.

Su Zhizhi's eyes lit up after hearing this, and she completely agreed with Xie Chengjin's idea. "You're so smart! Why didn't I think of that? Then what are we waiting for? Let's go to the casino."

"Okay, before that you still need to disguise yourself, but make sure you don't get recognized." Xie Chengjin looked at Su Zhizhi's face and emphasized.

"Okay." Su Zhizhi nodded.

Xie Chengjin asked his men to simply change Su Zhizhi's appearance. After changing into a brand new face, he took Su Zhizhi into the underground casino in Lianhua County.
